How's that?
Picture a huge catholic cathedral. In it there's many people, including a gregorian monk choir. You know, those who sing beautifully. Then they start singing, in latin, as they always do: "Ad hominem..." -Jörgen Sigvardsson

Fixed for you, but not for me...
I just want you to be happy, That's my only little wish...
Oh...I'm stupid...I need those newlines. Ugh.

I have really enjoyed the use of two applications recently that fill a very small niche for me. One is Taskbar Manager by Askarya (he's got some other cool stuff to): http://www.askarya.com/index.asp[^] This application allows you to drag/arrange programs down in your taskbar. For really anal-types like myself (yes I'll admit it) the taskbar applications must be ordered and placed. {Explorer}-{Outlook}-{Browsers}-{VS IDE}-{Iron Speed}-{OMEA Pro}-{Yeah You Get The Idea} Invariably though, something might go wrong. I could click a close button on accident, an application could lock-up etc... So then when I re-open it it's now in the wrong place. TBM by Askarya lets me drag it where it belongs on the taskbar and is rock-solid and stable. (Never tried it with Window Blinds but that's a product I won't use in the same sentance as rock-solid or stable.) The other product is Genie Outlook Backup: http://www.genie-soft.com/products/olb/default.html[^] I'm *SO* lazy when it comes to administrative tasks. I don't want to have to copy my .pst files, my email account settings and all that jazz manually. I just hate it and I forget something. The above program backed up my 1.6 GB .pst file and all my pop mail settings in less than 10 minutes. It even builds a self-installing .exe file for me and within 10 minutes all my mail, folders and settings were on my new machine and ready to go. I make zero money from this. I don't have a clue who these companies really are and if they test using animals, lead-paint or depleted uranium. I don't have a clue. I know I enjoy their products and thought I'd share them here for anyone needing that niche product. Anyway two programs I enjoy and both reasonably price. If you know of free equivalents I'd be very happy to investigate them for comparability. - Rex

You might be able to get Start Button Boogie. I don't believe it works for XP nested icons. If you want to see what it takes for XP nested icons, right here on CP is your answer: Nicholas Butler's work. I don't believe it allows drag-n-drop - I think you have to rearrange the icons in the program's window.

SciTE and Trillian are two apps i'd be very unhappy without.
My god, you're a genius! - Jörgen Sigvardsson, The Lounge
Ruby comes with the SciTE Editor. Is that what you use? If so; Why on god's green Earth do you like it? regards, Paul Watson Ireland Colib and ilikecameras. K(arl) wrote: oh, and BTW, CHRISTIAN ISN'T A PARADOX, HE IS A TASMANIAN!

It starts quickly, acts how i'd expect it to, supports all the various languages i use, and doesn't get in my way... It also prints nicely and allows copying text into emails with syntax formatting intact. It comes closest to filling the gap in my workflow that was last filled by the EPM editor on OS/2.
